Question

Can you get blurred vision from lack of sleep?

I've been sleep deprived for the last few nights due to insomnia and tonight my vision has been a little blurry.

It got bad enough for awhile that I couldn't even see a Television show or even see the text or anything clear enough on my computer screen.

The blurry vision has cleared up now but It's still not 100 percent clear.

Is it possible that the lack of sleep has caused my temporary blurry vision?

Answer 1

Yes not getting enough sleep can cause you to have blurred vision.

When you don't get enough sleep your eyes don't get properly lubricated and they dry out which can cause blurry vision.

When I don't get enough sleep I'll sometimes get blurry vision as well and once I do get enough sleep the blurry vision clears up the next morning.
